My mother was a Gitchel, Elizabeth--her father was Lewis Calvin--his father Calvin--his father David and wife Elizabeth Bennett. If you are related please help me on datta as I woud love to get my family tree completed as much as it is possible. Calvin was married to Sarah Luella Lake, her father Henry Lake, her mother Luella Shauk. Calvin and Elizabeth had these children: Frank, Grace, Cora, Lewis Calvin, Viva. Lewis Calvin Gitchel was born Dec 21, 1869 in Springfield, Missouri, he died Sept 16, 1927 as result of a son havig a gun go off while in a truck. If you are related would you please let me know what information you have on the Gitchel family.
